Dubai Desert Afternoon Quad Safari with Camel Ride, BBQ Dinner, and Belly Dancing

Depart your central Dubai hotel aboard an air-conditioned 4x4. Then, with a professional driver at the wheel, relax as you venture out into the desert around the city.

Arrive at the quad station and climb on to your rugged, four-wheeled bike. Then, don your provided helmet and gloves; listen to a safety briefing and instructions; and set off on your exciting expedition behind a guide vehicle.

Zip across the soft sands, plow up and down the desert slopes, and as you gain in confidence and skills, tackle steeper dunes and more challenging terrain.

As the afternoon light fades, take a break to shoot photos of the desert sunset, and boost your energy with soda and snacks. Then, pull up back at base.

Rejoin your 4x4 and continue to a camel farm. Here, view these hardy desert animals and enjoy a camel ride over the sands. 

Then, drive on to a Bedouin-style camp hidden into the folds of the dunes. Relax in the torchlit grounds, savor some Arabian coffee and dates and if you wish, smoke a shisha (water pipe).


Duly refreshed, check out the traditional Emirati activities on offer around the camp. See some beautiful sand art, get a henna tattoo on your hands or feet, and later, dig into a generous buffet dinner of tempting Arabic dishes, such as kebabs, hummus, and flatbreads. See the Itinerary for a sample menu.

During your meal, watch a sparkling belly dancing performance, as well as a tanoura show, with whirling dervish-style dancers spinning at dizzying speed.

Finally, enjoy a 4x4 journey back to Dubai where your experience concludes with a hotel drop-off.
